Chapter 253 Clash: Gaia vs. Agul
Jinghai City, the action stunt rehearsal room at the headquarters of Chasing Light Pictures.
The dull thuds of flesh colliding echoed in the spacious room.
Two actors in special protective suits are engaged in fierce close combat on a mat.
They are the "real" Gaia and Agul.
Now they are engaging in a brutal, real-life parrying and counter-attack.
Gu Nan sat behind the monitor, observing them.
As the plot of "Ultraman Gaia" progresses, episode 18 will bring one of the most important climaxes since the start of the series – a direct confrontation between the two Ultraman human hosts, followed by a battle in their life-size forms.
This scene is a life-size battle, and it's also the first time the two of them have completely broken off relations because of their differing ideologies.
Fujimiya is currently in a state of paranoia and coldness.
He believed he held the only truth to save the earth, so his attacks as Agul would be swift and decisive, even deadly.
He has gathered his light energy into a blue sword!
Every move was deadly, aimed straight at the vital points.
The cold-blooded sense of looking down from above and clearing obstacles is vividly portrayed.
At this moment, as Agul's avatar, Zhang Zhao suddenly took a step forward, his arm lashing out like a whip, his hand striking Gaia's neck with precision and ruthlessness. Immediately afterward, he used his waist to deliver a powerful knee strike straight to Gaia's abdomen.
Agul's fighting style is like this: he doesn't talk about martial ethics or routines; he just destroys you in the most effective way.
Because in his eyes, my current actions are hindering him from saving the earth.
Meanwhile, in my dream, he is currently experiencing extreme inner turmoil.
On the one hand, he firmly believed that Ultraman was the light that would save humanity, but on the other hand, he was shaken by the power that Agul had shown.
Therefore, in the first half of the fight, Gaia's movements should focus on defense, with an attitude of confusion and questioning.
Even if you get beaten, you have to endure it.
Only when he firmly believes in his beliefs will his counterattack appear more powerful.
The dull thuds of hammering echoed throughout the rehearsal room.
As Gu Nan watched the action design being refined on the monitor, he secretly looked forward to the upcoming plot.
Tokusatsu dramas are not just about suits fighting monsters; the dialogue and action scenes between the human hosts are also the core of shaping the characters' souls.
……
A week passed in the blink of an eye.
At 8 p.m. on Friday, countless viewers were already waiting in front of their screens on the video platform.
The breathtaking nuclear fusion beam and the abrupt end of the story in the previous episode had already left viewers on the edge of their seats.
As the rousing opening theme ended, the screen lit up instantly. Episode 18 of Ultraman Gaia: Agul vs. Gaia, has officially begun!
The plot didn't drag at all, directly connecting to the end of the previous episode.
In the sky, the colossal celestial being Diglob, struck by the nuclear fusion beam of Zhong Nairna, which gathered the power of the Earth's origin, experienced an extremely terrifying explosion at the edge of the stratosphere!
A blinding light instantly illuminated the entire night sky, and a terrifying energy shockwave swept wildly from the horizon toward the city on the ground.
The wind howled, the clouds were torn apart in an instant, and the whole world seemed to be coming to an end at this moment.
Just as the shockwave was about to engulf the city, Ultraman Gaia, the guardian of the earth, stepped forward.
Gaia's massive, red and silver body stood firm in the raging wind. With a sudden outstretched arm, he used the last bit of light energy within him to forcefully erect a huge, semi-circular protective shield radiating a warm red light above the city.
"boom--!!!"
The devastating shockwave slammed into the protective shield, sending up ripples of energy.
Gaia's light flickered under the impact, but he still held on desperately.
The barrage of comments surged wildly at that moment.
Holy crap! The explosion effects are amazing! The budget is burning like crazy!
[The biggest barrier in history!]
[Gai Yatai is in trouble; they always have to clean up Agul's messes!]
[Agul forcefully opened the monster's back to release energy, then dusted himself off and left, leaving Gaia to bear the entire shockwave!]
【Light of the Earth! This is the true guardian!】
My dream truly involves risking my life to protect humanity.
When the aftershocks of the explosion finally subsided, the sky returned to calm.
Having exhausted all its energy, Gaia could no longer hold on. Its massive body crashed down, slamming heavily into the ruins, while the color timer on its chest emitted a piercing, urgent alarm.
Not far away, Agul's cold figure walked over.
He stared silently at Gaia, who lay sprawled on the ground, a cold question flashing through his mind.
"Why would you sacrifice your own life to protect humanity, my dream?"
Leaving behind this silent question, Agul transformed into blue light and vanished without a trace.
The scene shifts, and Gaia struggles to her feet, sending the nearly lifeless Zhong Nai'er back underground.
Inside XIG's air base, the team members watched this scene with a somewhat somber atmosphere.
"He has already transported the monster to Meibao Mountain."
Captain Daocheng of the Cool Dragons team stared at everything before him and reported back.
"What is he trying to do?"
Watching Gaia's exhausted flight and near-crash on the screen, Xiao Hui from the Cool Dragons team sighed softly, "Gaia is so kind."
This is just the beginning.
[The Destruction Invitation Entity is basically playing its cards right in the open, directly launching an asteroid at Earth. Who can withstand that?]
These two episodes were incredibly oppressive; humanity is truly so insignificant in the face of cosmic catastrophe.
Sigh, the two Ultramen still haven't united. If the Destruction Bomb comes along with two more monsters with complex mechanics, things will get tough.
If everyone works together with one mind!
The one mentioned earlier is a bit unusual.
……
The scene shifts to a bustling city street.
Hiroya Fujimiya, dressed in his signature black outfit, moved through the crowd with a blank expression.
On the large television screen by the roadside, a special report from KCB TV was playing.
"If that celestial being is also a primal, extinct entity seeking to destroy Earth, what kind of crisis will Earth face in the future?"
On the screen, Jing Ling, holding a microphone, was analyzing with a serious expression: "And those two Ultramen, why don't they combine their powers?"
She paused, her voice filled with unwavering hope, "But I believe in them. I believe they will... they will definitely save humanity."
Upon hearing this, Fujimiya, who was standing in the crowd, suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He looked up and stared intently at Jing Ling on the screen, a hint of undisguised mockery and anger flashing in his eyes.
When Fujimiya reappeared, he had already blocked Irene's way home from get off work.
In the dim light of the underground parking garage, Fujimiya pressed closer, his aura so cold it was suffocating.
"Ultraman is here to save Earth from the Root of Destruction."
Although Jing Ling was afraid, she still insisted on her opinion, "Then why should they fight if they are both Ultraman?"
Fujimiya looked at her coldly, his tone devoid of any warmth: "The difference lies in whether they know what they should be doing."
"What should be done?"
"Saving the planet and saving humanity are two completely different things."
Fujimiya's voice echoed in the empty garage, carrying a chilling obsession.
Jing Ling was stunned for a moment, her brain racing.
Recalling her previous interactions with this mysterious man, a bold guess took shape in her mind.
"What are you talking about...?"
Lunwen, who was standing by inexplicably, couldn't stand it any longer and stepped forward to pull Jingling away: "Lingzi, there's no need to pay attention to this kind of person. Let's go."
But Jingling shook off Lunwen's hand, leaving him in the elevator, and then got out herself.
She stared intently at Fujimiya's retreating figure, then suddenly exclaimed, "You're the one who told me that Ultraman can understand human language!"
She recalled her previous encounter with Deans.
"I can sense that Ultraman is actually a human!"
Fujimiya stopped and turned his head slightly: "I never said that."
"Then why did you specifically tell me?"
Jing Ling quickly caught up, her tone confident, "Actually, you really wanted to say it, didn't you? That you're the blue Ultraman!"
The air seemed to freeze at that moment.
Fujimiya didn't turn around or refute, leaving behind a silent and lonely figure in the dimly lit street.
The barrage of comments exploded instantly.
[Holy crap! Reiko's so brave! She went straight for the enemy's face and unleashed her ultimate!]
[The female reporter's intuition is frighteningly accurate!]
[Is Fujimiya's statement a tacit admission? He's actually quite lonely inside, hoping someone can understand him, but his stubborn beliefs prevent him from getting close to anyone.]
Saving the Earth and saving humanity are two different things... This statement was truly devastating for Fujimiya, who had learned the truth from Chrysis.
In Fujimiya's eyes, humanity is like a cancer cell on Earth.
Meanwhile, inside XIG's air base.
I dreamt of sitting alone in the laboratory, holding the mysterious device I had taken from Zhong Naier.
His brows furrowed, his mind replaying Fujimiya's cold face and ruthless methods.
He recalled his conversation with AI Pal when he returned from the air earlier.
"How could Fujimiya have such thoughts? That's absolutely wrong."
I murmured to myself, "Humans are undeniably important to Earth. But why does Fujimiya possess Agul's power?"
This unsolvable question haunts my dreams like a nightmare.
"It's okay, no one can give me an answer."
I took a deep breath, my eyes hardening. "I must find the answer myself."
Just then, the laboratory door was suddenly pushed open.
Happy Birthday, Georgie!
Happy birthday to me!
Qiao Ji and Li Muzi walked in, carrying an exquisite birthday cake and chatting happily.
The previously oppressive atmosphere was instantly broken by this sudden burst of joy.
I felt a little embarrassed and tried to put away the instruments on the table, but was spotted by the sharp-eyed Georgie.
"My dream, what were you doing just now?"
Georgie curiously came closer.
"N-nothing...it's nothing." I was a little flustered.
"I already said it's nothing, so don't move around randomly!" I dreamed, trying to stop him.
"Your welding isn't very precise, but the base design is quite nice," Georgie said, pointing to the device.
"Beautiful? Georgie, your aesthetic sense is quite different."
However, I continued speaking along with what Georgie had said.
He pointed to a part of the instrument, expressing his confusion.
"I don't quite understand this place, or this style..."
However, Georgie directly revealed the origin of this item:
"That's it, the one that was officially launched a while ago, the synchronous translation voice device for machine languages. I remember it was made by an Indian teenager from Alchemy Star, didn't you know?"
"So there are all sorts of people in Alchemy Star," Li Muzi exclaimed.
But then I began to ponder:
"This is a translator, but why invent it? Does it even work against monsters?"
[My dream guy's reaction was so relatable, hahaha.]
[Translation device! Fujimiya used this device to give instructions to Nakanaru!]
The technology on Alchemy Planet is truly amazing; it can even translate monster languages in real time.
Horii expressed his approval.
[Friend! It's delicious!]
[666, how did a Gazort sneak in?]
However, this brief moment of warmth did not last long.
The translator placed on the table suddenly emitted a rapid "beep beep" sound, and the red indicator light began to flash wildly!
"What's going on? It seems to be reacting!" My Meng's expression changed drastically.
"The source of the information is nearby!"
Almost simultaneously, the entire air base was filled with the piercing highest-level alarm! Red alarm lights spun wildly in the corridors and command center.
"Intrusion detected!"
Di Cheng and the others rushed back to the command room, only to find that they could not open the door.
"My pass has suddenly expired!"
"That's strange, everything is working fine with the system!"
"Why is the security door locked when there's no one inside?"
The air base was thrown into chaos.
All systems were instantly stripped of control, and the once impregnable air base now seemed to have become an inescapable steel cage.
Just then, a thunderclap flashed through my mind.
Anti-gravity device!
"I need to check the anti-gravity device!"
He looked up abruptly, a chilling guess forming in his mind.
suddenly!
"I dreamt."
A cold, familiar voice appeared in my ears as I arrived next to the device.
"To think they could protect the Earth with something like this is utterly foolish."
I clenched my teeth, my eyes bloodshot, and knew that the worst-case scenario had finally arrived...
……
"What's wrong, Director Di Cheng?" asked Commander Shi Shi, who had just brought police officers to the scene.
"Intrusion! Attempting to control the anti-gravity device!"
Director Di Cheng's voice was somewhat anxious, "The captain's cabin is also locked down, has the bridge been occupied?"
"How could this happen?"
Staff Officer Ye Qian was shocked. "This is the central hub of the air base! How will things develop if this continues?"
Di Cheng's voice was heavy as he told everyone the consequences: "We will deviate from equatorial orbit... pulled down by gravity, and the base will crash!"
The entire base fell into a deathly silence. Everyone felt a deep sense of despair in the face of this sudden turn of events.
"The anti-gravity device must not be allowed to stop working!"
"The commander of the stone chamber said."
"But all the control systems are concentrated in the command center!" Li Muzi replied.
[Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap!!!]
[Fujimiya is serious! He hacked directly into the aerial base!]
He's going to smash the airbase down?! There are so many people up there!
[This is insane! To prove that human strength is useless, they just wiped out the defense force's base!]
[This is incredibly oppressive! The king of cool is definitely not playing by the rules!]
"I've got an idea, Mu Zi!"
"We can issue commands directly from the computer mainframe," Georgie said. "Let's go!"
The two then went to the main unit to prepare for operation.
"How are preparations for breaching the command center?" Commander Ishimura asked.
"The Seagull team is already waiting in the hold below!"
Director Di Cheng answered immediately.
"We must not allow the air base to crash!"
The tense music reached its climax at this moment.
the other side
I dreamt that I transformed into Gaia and forcibly broke into the anti-gravity device control panel in the command room.
He knew that the man with the light of the ocean was waiting for him inside.
He saw the figure in black standing in front of the huge control panel.
Fujimiya Hiroya turned around and looked coldly at Gaia.
"Because of this kind of thing, humanity clings to pointless hopes and refuses to face reality." Fujimiya pointed at the massive aerial base, his tone filled with contempt.
"What's wrong with having hope?!" I asked loudly.
"The opponent is a primordial extinction entity; humanity has no hope whatsoever." Fujimiya took a step forward.
"Then let me ask you, what are you planning to do? Utilize Earth's monsters?"
"To deal with force, you must use force."
Fujimiya's eyes turned fanatical. "I dreamt that Earth harbors immense power. That power was entrusted to me; it was Earth that entrusted it to me!"
"I don't believe it! Your idea is completely wrong!"
My dream will not be compromised.
"That's impossible."
Fujimiya sneered, "Agul is the one who truly saved the Earth. I dreamt, I thought you were one of them too."
His gaze gradually turned cold, filled with murderous intent.
"Do you want to be my complete enemy?"
